    "And the future possibilities for movement of freight are just as exciting."​

    Okay, maybe that quote didn't age so well. :biggrin_2559:


    With the driver sitting at 13', they would have a lot less drivers trying that 11'8" overpass... or a lot less drivers. :biggrin_2552:

    Thought of that too when I saw the video. I recall reading about the restoration of one of them awhile ago.

    They used to do such cool stuff.
